When an object changes velocity, it accelerates. Acceleration is the change in velocity per second and is measured in m/s 2. Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has size and direction. The ...

One of the most basic things students do in a physics lab is to collect data and use that to build a model. Most of these models come in the form of a mathematical function. But here is the problem.

We're at the Porsche test track to learn all about acceleration. Unit 2 Segment C: Acceleration and Kinematic Equations We're back at the Porsche test track to learn all about acceleration. Kinematic ...

Speaker one We’ve been using Sir Isaac Newton’s theories for hundreds of years and still use his equations today. Now, how can we test Newton’s second law using equipment found in our laboratory?

Engineers focused on fast, light automation systems may pay too much attention to speed specs when acceleration is what really counts. Sponsored by Rollon Bearing speed is rarely the limiting ...
